Product Description
The GLS85VM1004A / 1008A / VM1016A / VM1032A
eMMC NANDrive™ devices (referred to as eMMC
NANDrive in this datasheet) are fully integrated solid
state drives. They combine an advanced Greenliant
NAND controller and 4, 8, 16 or 32 GByte of NAND
flash memory in a multi-chip package. These products
are ideal for solid state mass storage in embedded
and portable applications that require small form-
factor, energy efficient and reliable data storage.
eMMC solid state drives are widely used in GPS and
telematics, in-vehicle infotainment, portable and
industrial computers, handheld data collection
scanners, point-of-sale terminals, networking and
telecommunications equipment, robotics, audio and
video recorders, monitoring devices and set-top boxes.
eMMC NANDrive provides complete eMMC solid state
drive (SSD) functionality and compatibility in a 14mm
x 18mm BGA package for easy, space saving
mounting to a system motherboard. With its small size,
low power consumption, strong security, reliability and
ruggedness, eMMC NANDrive surpasses removable
storage and discrete NAND-based products.
The integrated NAND flash controller with built-in
advanced NAND management firmware
communicates with the Host through the standard
eMMC protocol. It does not require any additional or
proprietary software such as the Flash File System
(FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD).
eMMC NANDrive’s advanced NAND management
technology enhances data security, improves
endurance and accurately tracks the usage of the
NAND flash. This innovative technology combines
robust error correction capabilities with advanced
wear-leveling algorithms and bad block management
to extend the life of the product.
eMMC NANDrive supports Dual Data Rate (DDR)
mode, boot, multiple partitions, permanent and partial
write protect, Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB)
access, Secure erase and TRIM, hardware reset and
other features detailed in the eMMC 4.4 standard
specification. It is fully backward compatible with the
eMMC 4.3 standard.

Industrial Temp eMMC NANDrive™
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each eMMC NANDrive contains an integrated eMMC NAND flash memory controller and NAND flash die in a
BGA package. Refer to Figure 2-1 for the eMMC NANDrive block diagram.
1.1 Optimized eMMC NANDrive
The heart of the eMMC NANDrive is the eMMC NAND
flash memory controller, which translates standard
eMMC signals into flash media data and control
signals. The following components contribute to the
eMMC NANDrive’s operation.
1.1.1 Microcontroller Unit (MCU)
The MCU transfers the eMMC commands into data
and control signals required for flash media operation.
1.1.2 Internal Direct Memory Access (DMA)
The eMMC NANDrive uses internal DMA allowing
instant data transfer from/to buffer to/from flash media.
This implementation eliminates microcontroller
overhead associated with the traditional, firmware-
based approach, thereby increasing the data transfer
rate.
1.1.3 Power Management Unit (PMU)
The PMU controls the power consumption of the
eMMC NANDrive. The PMU dramatically reduces the
power consumption of the eMMC NANDrive by putting
the part of the circuitry that is not in operation into
sleep mode.
The Flash File System handles inadvertent power
interrupts and has auto-recovery capability to ensure
the eMMC NANDrive’s data integrity.
1.1.4 Embedded Flash File System
The embedded flash file system is an integral part of
the eMMC NANDrive. It contains MCU firmware that
performs the following tasks:
1. Translates host side signals into flash media
writes and reads
2. Provides flash media wear leveling to spread
flash writes across all memory address space to
increase the longevity of flash media
3. Keeps track of the data file structure
4. Manages system security for the selected
protection zones
1.1.5 Error Correction Code (ECC)
High performance is achieved through optimized
hardware error detection and correction.
1.1.6 Serial Communication Interface (SCI)
The Serial Communication Interface (SCI) is designed
for error reporting. During the product development
stage, it is recommended to provide the SCI port on
the PCB to aid in design validation.
1.1.7 Multi-tasking Interface
The multi-tasking interface enables fast, sequential
write performance by allowing concurrent Read,
Program and Erase operations to multiple flash media.
1.2 SMT Reflow Consideration
The eMMC NANDrive family utilizes standard NAND
flash for data storage. Because the high temperature
in a surface-mount soldering reflow process may alter
the content on NAND flash, it is recommended to
program the eMMC NANDrive after the reflow process.
1.3 Advanced NAND Management
The eMMC NANDrives integrated controller uses
advanced wear-leveling algorithms to substantially
increase the longevity of NAND flash media. Wear
caused by data writes is evenly distributed in all or
select blocks in the device that prevents hot spots in
locations that are programmed and erased extensively.
This effective wear-leveling technique results in
optimized device endurance, enhanced data retention
and higher reliability required by long-life applications.
